## DESCRIPTION
    Requests HTTP Library
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Requests is an HTTP library, written in Python, for human beings.
    Basic GET usage:

       >>> import requests
       >>> r = requests.get('<https://www.python.org>')
       >>> r.status_code
       200
       >>> b'Python is a programming language' in r.content
       True

    ... or POST:

       >>> payload = dict(key1='value1', key2='value2')
       >>> r = requests.post('<https://httpbin.org/post>', data=payload)
       >>> print(r.text)
       {
         ...
         "form": {
           "key1": "value1",
           "key2": "value2"
         },
         ...
       }

    The other HTTP methods are supported - see `requests.api`. Full documentation
